(Late) Election Nails

Hey ya'll

I've been gone for a while, and this is my sincere apology. Now onto the nails!
I have a simple "tye-dye" style mani for you guys today. It was inspired by, what else, election night!

Poor cuticle :c


 
Four more years!

These didn't take a lot of time, but I liked how they turned out. The holo sparkle topcoat gave it a little more "oomph".

That's all for today, hopefully tomorrow I'll be able to upload my first attempt at a framed mani! Also I just made my first purchase from Born Pretty Store, some cute pink bows, so I'll make sure to update as soon as I get those!

Wizard of Oz Nails

Hello blogspot!
I recently went to my schools production of The Wizard of Oz, so I decided to do some cute dorothy inspired nails for the occasion. This was my first time attempting the "plaid" look, and I'm really pleased with how it turned out!




 
For the "Dorothy's dress" look, I started with a base coat of white, and then used a nail art brush to paint the blue lines. To give it some more depth, I added a dab of blue polish on the sections of the lines that overlapped.
For the "Ruby Slipper" look, I used a brush coated in clear polish, and dipped it in glittery red embossing powder. It took about 3 coats to cover the nail opaquely.
 
I'll have more looks coming up later this week, so keep checking back!

Belated Halloween Masterpost

Hello Blogspot!
A million pardons for taking that unannounced hiatus. I can't even begin to explain how swamped I've been, so I'll just show you the nails I did for my favorite holiday, Halloween!

First up are some spiderweb half moons



Then we have blood splatter nails


 
 
And finally, candy corn nails!


 
 

Again, I apologize for taking so long between posts, but I promise to have more nails up this week!

Fall Nails

Hey Blogger
I'm pretty positive that fall is my favorite season. The leaves turn, it gets cold out, and of course, there's Halloween! I got a new flakie topcoat that I wanted to try out and it ended up looking like October, so here's my first fall-themed mani!

Obligatory bottle-shot
 
Kind of reminds me of this picture of a salamander...
 
 
 
For this mani, I used Wet 'N Wild Black Creme as a base and layered on two coats of Essence Nail Art Special Effect Topper (whew!) in Night In Vegas. I'm really happy with how it turned out, the flakies were a red/green duochrome that looked awesome over the black. I even put a matte topcoat on after a day or two that looked great, but I didn't get a photo :(
 
Im pretty swamped with work, but I'm planning on posting some Halloween themed nails, along with my first franken mani soon! Keep checking up on the page :)

Frankens!

Hey Blogspot
I know this blog is called Frank N' Fingers, but I've actually only made three frankens in my entire life (omg). The first one was a horrible failure, the color from the glitter bled into the polish and then it all hardened into a huge mess, so I scrapped it. But then I did some research on glitters and polishes that mixed well together, and made my (two) first succesful frankens!
 
I present, All Holo's Eve!

 
 



 
 
All Holo's Eve is a black creme base with holographic mini glitter suspended in it. I created this franken by using Wet n' Wild's Black Creme and adding in half a bottle of Fantasy Makers Confetti in Glitz
 
 
Next up is... Holoback Girl!







 
Holoback Girl is a holographic topcoat with holographic mini glitter in a clear polish. I created this franken by mixing one bottle of L.A. Colors Voltage with a half bottle of  Fantasy Makers Confetti in Glitz.
 
Well there you have 'em, my first succesful frankens! Tomorrow I'll post some halloween inspired nails, so stay tuned.

Teal gradient mani

Hi blogspot

I have a lot of manis in my queue, but I'm feeling lethargic today, so I'll share a quick gradient that I did on my little sister's friend when she slept over the other night.

They were watching a movie and wanted me out of there ASAP, so I didn't get to tidy the edges up :c
I did two coats of Sinful Colors Snow Me White as a base and let it dry. For the gradient, I used the sponging method, brushing Sinful Colors Rise And Shine on a makeup sponge, and then dabbing it 3/4 of the way down the nail. I repeated the sponging two more times, moving up towards the tips each time until Rise And Shine was opaque. I topped that with two coats of Wet n Wild Shine in Kaleidoscope, a pretty topcoat with small hex holo glitter. Then I finished with one coat of Seche Vite and I was done!
Aw, messy edges :c

I didn't quite capture the holo effect from the topcoat, but it looked nice anyway! Tomorrow I'm going to post my first (successful) franken-polishes so stay tuned.
